Howdy.
I couldn't work out why my headlights were crap compared to my previous VX wagon, so I pulled them out today to install some new SS ones.
This is what happens when you use H4- 90/100 watt globes in place of the standard H4- 55/60 watt ones. I DO NOT RECOMMEND USING HIGHER WATTAGE GLOBES IN COMMODORE HEADLIGHTS, lol.
The top section of the reflector disintegrated and then the top of the headlight casing along with it. Obviously from excess heat. Just couldn't see it until they were slid out of the front of the car for replacement.
No, I did not put the higher wattage bulbs in, they were already there, lol. I was going to with my new ones, but thankfully I saw the light, lol.
Pics are below, lol...
